When the levels of monsters were much higher than players, the names of the monster wouldn’t be displayed at all. From the attributes of the City Lord, it seemed like the City Lord’s level was not much higher than Wang Yu.

One must know that under the background of the game, the human expert of the pinnacle of a job wouldn’t exceed level 100. Since the City Lord had yet to breakthrough the pinnacle, he was definitely not above level 100. It seemed like he would be around level 80.

For a level 45 player, any ordinary BOSS thirty-five levels higher than oneself would be an overwhelming presence, let alone an Ancient grade BOSS like this City Lord. Therefore, even Wang Yu didn’t harbour much hope of defeating him.

The difference in levels was not something ordinary players could accept. Unless they had the skills of a freestyle expert like Wang Yu, ordinary players could forget about breaking through the defence of the BOSS.

Even so, Wang Yu truly believed that even when facing an expert of this calibre, there was still the slightest chance of succeeding. However, the key would be to find the breakthrough to the enemy’s defence.

Every expert must have a heart that dares to challenge. Regardless of how powerful the opponent might be, an expert should never back down from a challenge. Once fear crept into the heart of an expert, it would limit the true potential that could be achieved.

Wang Yu was a great example of a true expert. As long as he believed there was a one percent chance of succeeding, he would always give it a go. This was also the reason why Wang Yu would hang out with the scumbags of the Quan Zhen Sect. Every member of the Quan Zhen Sect was basically the same kind of person.

“So? Are you ready?” The City Lord was considered a rather honest NPC. If Old Man Hermit was here, he would have pounced on Wang Yu to beat him up without hesitation. He would never bother asking if he was ready or whatnot.

“En!” Wang Yu took one step back as he nodded his head, “I’m ready!”

“Come at me!” City Lord hooked his finger at Wang Yu.

Wang Yu wasn’t standing on ceremony as he lowered his centre of gravity before charging towards the City Lord with [Crushing Blow].

The City Lord’s title was Thunderhand so his agility was naturally not going to be low. Welcoming Wang Yu’s fist, he extended his right fist and attempted to strike Wang Yu’s head first.

Even though Wang Yu was a tall and towering man, that was only to ordinary people in real life. In this world where people could adjust their height, Wang Yu’s 1.86-metre height was only considered average among the other players. As compared to an NPC, he was even smaller than usual.

The City Lord was an extremely tall and sturdy man who was almost half a head taller than Wang Yu and had longer arms and legs. When Wang Yu’s [Crushing Blow] was still about ten centimetres away from the City Lord’s chest, the City Lord’s fist was already right beside Wang Yu’s head.

Fortunately, Wang Yu’s reaction was lightning quick as he dismissed his skill decisively when he realised that the City Lord’s fist was about to smash his head. This was how he managed to dodge the City Lord’s iron fist.

At the instance Wang Yu landed on the ground, the City Lord extended his long leg towards Wang Yu’s chest. This time, Wang Yu couldn’t dodge it in time and was struck right smack in the middle of his chest. Like a football, Wang Yu was sent flying over several metres by one kick.

-4379

After suffering one kick from the City Lord, Wang Yu’s health decreased by twenty percent. The fortunate thing was that Wang Yu managed to use both his hands to protect his chest at a crucial moment while jumping back simultaneously. These actions managed to reduce the impact of the kick significantly. Otherwise, the City Lord’s single kick would have force Wang Yu’s spirit guard out.

Seeing that his attack didn’t kill Wang Yu in a heartbeat, the City Lord commented in a surprised tone. “Tsk tsk, what a decent kid! To think you still have some resilience in you.”

After saying that, the City Lord charged forward once more as he returned [Crushing Blow] towards Wang Yu.

Under the same circumstances, the one with greater strength and longer arms would emerge victorious.

Not only were the City Lord’s arms and legs longer than Wang Yu, but even his attack capabilities were also on a whole new level. Additionally, he had many ways to kill Wang Yu in an instant. In such a situation, even if Wang Yu had a hundred ways to deal with the upcoming attack, he wouldn’t dare to deal with it head on.

No matter how good his techniques were, blocking a few moves from someone multiple times stronger than him was already an impressive feat. Why would he want to court his own death by standing in front of a bomb?

Wang Yu knew how powerful the City Lord was so he lowered his head to dodge the fist. With a forward roll, he managed to roll to the back of the City Lord and swung his right leg towards the City Lord’s ankle.

As a level 80 Ancient BOSS, the City Lord’s agility and speed of movements exceeded Wang Yu’s imagination. The moment he saw Wang Yu rolling towards his back, he already had the mental preparations of what he was about to face. Before Wang Yu’s leg could strike the City Lord’s ankle, he had already lifted his leg and sent a spinning kick towards Wang Yu.

Wang Yu was dumbfounded as he retracted his leg and did yet another roll. When he finally got back up on his feet, the City Lord had already turned over to face him with both fists in front of him.

“What a troublesome fella!!” Facing Wang Yu, the City Lord couldn’t help but sigh.

As an Ancient BOSS, the City Lord’s intelligence was definitely not going to be comparable to those idiotic and foolish BOSS. Even though the two of them had only exchanged blows a couple of times, the City Lord already felt slightly fearful just from the display of Wang Yu’s reaction capabilities as well as fighting abilities.

Wang Yu’s attacks were like ocean water. As long as there was the slightest of opportunity, he would make full use of it to penetrate your defence.

The City Lord was extremely clear that when facing an opponent like this, he must not expose any possible breakthrough to his defence.

One must know that the City Lord was, after all, still an ultimate level 80 BOSS. Now that he was facing a player who was almost half his level, he didn’t even dare to use any skills against him. This proved how difficult it was to deal with Wang Yu.

“I knew there will never be a free lunch in this world. A high-level Ancient BOSS is indeed not easy to deal with!”

At the same time, Wang Yu had also made his own judgement of the City Lord. As a Pugilist as well, Wang Yu deduced that the City Lord surpassed him in all other aspects other than techniques.

This was especially true for every single fist coming from the City Lord. Every fist seemed to be capable of ending Wang Yu’s life on the spot. Therefore, even though Wang Yu surpassed the City Lord in terms of techniques, it wouldn’t be of much help in a situation like this.

There was no other way because the suppression of levels was simply too significant. If Wang Yu was also at level 80, or even level 60, there would be no way he could be suppressed so severely by the City Lord.

In just a blink of an eye, the two of them exchanged blows once again. More specifically, Wang Yu suffered more beatings once again. Under the suppressive attacks from the City Lord, Wang Yu was struggling to dodge every single one of them. On the rare occasions that he could fight back, all his attacks missed its target.

Ever since Wang Yu started playing this game and killing numerous BOSSes, this was the first time he was suppressed so badly and pathetically.

The spectators by the side like Ling Longmeng and the rest were also extremely anxious when they saw how Wang Yu couldn’t even fight back no matter how hard he tried.

Seeing how Wang Yu was almost forced to the corner by the City Lord, Ling Longmeng’s rotten temper came into play again. Ignoring Yang Nuo’s advice, she raised her bow to shoot an arrow towards the City Lord.

“Pa…”

Ling Longmeng’s arrow landed on the back of the City Lord’s head as it disrupted the City Lord’s attack on Wang Yu.

Wang Yu used this opportunity to get out of the City Lord’s fighting range by rolling. Following which, he pulled his distance apart as he took a few steps backwards.

The City Lord turned over gradually as he pulled out the arrow at the back of his head before staring at Ling Longmeng, “This is a solo trial quest. If you are trying to intervene forcefully, I will increase the difficulty by one fold!”
